The city blinked and the project has been officially withdrawn. You stopped this development through sheer persistence and now we stay focused to ensure the site plans remain within the legal original scope.

The City approved an 18 unit building behind closed doors
This is a major change from 10 units in the approved plan for 4736-40 Grand Avenue
The City Council must follow the law and act now

The City Council is keeping quiet on the Grand Avenue building project but that silence shows they know we are watching. Email Jeremy Schroeder and his staff right now to demand they stick to the original ten-unit plan. Post this link on your neighborhood Facebook group so more people realize what is happening behind closed doors.

This development does not promote affordable housing and is a poor fit for this particular block. Too large and an unfriendly design in that there are no doors and windows along a large stretch of the block. More suited to busier business districts.
Approving a property that doesn’t align to 2040 plan, doesn’t address affordable housing, and will undoubtedly cause environmental impacts to that corner is a failure in leadership and city planners.
This project is a danger to the safety of the neighborhood. Too many new cars next to a child play area. It is inconsistent with the neighborhood feel. Query whether any of the city council members would accept this 18 unit building on their block?
Changes should not be allowed, especially ones done behind closed doors. Our city is being tested in so many ways right now, and the City Council appears to be following its own agenda, not listening to the people or following laws. Shame on you for allowing destruction of neighborhoods.
Just walked by the site again and I was saddened by the enormity of this approved building. This is a family neighborhood of homes and duplexes and four plexus. An 18 unit building has no place here. I believe the city council knows this too but only acts behind closed doors. Shame on the council for approving this building.
This project does not fit the character of my neighborhood. That it was approved without neighborhood consultation is both outrageous and egregious!
This is not a well conceived development creating congestion and disturbing aesthetics of neighborhood

We must stop Fullerton Flats! This would completely block our street’s view of the sky and sunset each evening, not only that but the parking on our street is already limited.
